AVOIDING KICKBACKS (FIG. BB)
To avoid kickback (having the work
thrown violently back toward you), keep
the blade sharp, keep the rip fence
parallel to the saw blade and keep
the riving knife, blade guard and anti-
kickback pawls in place, aligned and
functioning. Do not release the work
before passing it completely beyond
the saw blade. Do not rip work that
is twisted, warped or does not have
a straight edge to guide it along the
fence. Do not attempt to back out of a
cut with the blade running.
WARNING
!
Improper riving knife alignment can
cause "kickback" and serious injury.
